Meet our therapists

We’re a small team, and each of us focuses on a few areas so we can go deep: OCD, anxiety, ADHD, autism, ARFID, and trauma. We keep training all the time and talk through our clients’ care together every week.

Two kinds of clinicians

Specialist or focused clinician

Specialist

Independently licensed therapists with years of advanced training and experience in their areas, including complex cases. Their fee reflects that experience.

Focused clinician

Licensed therapists earlier in their careers who treat the same concerns with the same methods and meet with our specialists every week. Their lower fee puts specialized care within reach for more families.
